Hans Huang, President of DK City, sees great potential in the relationship: “With ROBRADY’s fantastic design ability and our production capability as well as our established sales network, success is just around the corner”. There is great excitement at ROBRADY design as well. ROBRADY’s CEO / Design Director Robert Brady feels that the two companies are “very complimentary” and that the partnership will yield many profitable products: “ROBRADY will continue to strive in positioning DK City as a source for highly desired market-leading transportation products”.

The back carries most of your body’s weight. These days in the corporate world there are many demands of you to write for long hours at your desk or spend hours in front of a computer typing in your chair. Chances are, your chair isn’t even ergonomically designed and your back gets all of the abuse. The rise of technology has provided a solution to your back aches and pains – the dawn of the electric back massagers.
Electric back massagers come in all shapes, sizes and forms. The most popular electric back massagers come in the form of a chair. The aching person sits on the chair and chooses from a variety of programs that allow the chair to focus either on the lower back or the upper back. You will then input your choices in an interface and the back-rest springs to life. Vibrations emanate from the back-rest as machines massage the back. Some electric chair massagers have the capacity to analyze the form of one’s back and spine to better target the muscles located in it.
Other electric back massagers are handheld and look very much like a regular shower-head. A button is pressed and the tip either vibrates, rolls, beats, or kneads. Handheld electric back massagers are great for isolated aches and pains and are more flexible in treating muscle pains for it can be used to treat thighs and arms as well. Some handheld electric massagers come with infra-red devices that claim to sooth and rejuvenate tired muscles. These handheld massagers are great for massaging not only yourself, but your loved ones as well.
]]>
Yet another kind of ingenious back massager is the shiatsu body massager. This type of massager is bigger than the hand held massager and can stand on its own. The shiatsu body massager does not only massage the back, but it does well in massaging the neck, the arms, or even the legs. It utilizes a certain type of massage called acupressure, which aims to regulate the flow of energy within one’s body. A shiatsu massage requires the user to press specific body parts on the massager. This creates intense relaxation while restoring the body’s natural balance. Shiatsu body massagers, as opposed to other electric back massagers, claim to give the user smoother skin, as well as other attractive benefits.
There are hundreds of electric back massagers to choose from, but always be wary of which one to purchase. Some have doubtful claims, so always do your research before spending your hard earned money on one. Whatever claims some electric back massagers say, these massagers are sure to relieve you of your muscle aches and pains, as well as promote over-all blood circulation.
Electric back massagers nowadays have become so smart in their capacity to treat one’s aches and pains that the regular human masseuse has been rendered almost useless. In the age of robots and high-technology, it is amazing how we now have the capacity to make machines that can give the ultimate massage. Electric back massager, nowadays, are definitely a good investment.
ROBRADY design & DK City Unfold Future of Electric Bikes
Sarasota, FL (PRWEB) September 24, 2009
Earlier this month ROBRADY design and DK City unveiled their concept db0 folding electric bicycle to a select audience at Eurobike ’09, the year’s leading bicycle show in Friedrichshafen, Germany. Images of the concept bike are now being made available to the public. ROBRADY will be discussing the bike with Carlton Reid of BizBike.com this week during a half-hour interview at Interbike in Las Vegas. The db0 is the first in a series of three bicycles that ROBRADY has designed for DK City. The bike is scheduled for release to the market in the first quarter of 2010.
While ROBRADY is well known for their design prowess in the electric scooter and super bike world, this is their first foray into the electric bicycle market. ROBRADY’s CEO / Design Director Robert Brady said his team “took a white page look” at the opportunity and set out to design a series of bikes that would be instantly recognized as the next generation in folding bikes: “The three new db0 bikes embody our mission to design a series of clean, bold, and innovatively simple folding bikes. Our design work promotes the folding mechanism as an integrated piece of the design- a ‘focal point’ that adds visual value to the bike design unlike it has ever been done before. We don’t hide the fact that these bikes fold- we have made it a distinguished characteristic of the series”. Several features of the bike are currently in patent process. DK City, who will be the exclusive manufacturers of the bicycle series, is also taking a fresh approach to the build, incorporating unique manufacturing processes that will deliver a bicycle of superior craftsmanship. The partnership is planning several future projects beyond this series of bicycles.

___________________
+ Description:
I’ve been in quit a few fights before. I lost most of them do to the fact that I faint easily from choke-holds. It appears choke holds is my main weakness, but I can take punches and chairs being flung at me like a pro. I don’t really think about pain when in a fight and I trained myself to not flinch so faking or messing with me is gonna get an immediate action cuz the moment i feel threaten my senses kick in to punch. Even though I know certain people who could easily kick my ass that doesn’t mean I will be afraid to fight em’, in fact if i’m threaten i will hurt them in any way possible if i have that opportunity and I cut my fore arms (not wrist cuz im not an emo) just to prove my endurance. If I do faint I usually recover very fast in as little as 2-4 minutes and immediately know and remember everything of what happened in a fight even if i lost and I may get straight back to a fight.
I’ve felt the strange current/flow of electricity following me around many times and have been zapped very strongly alot. I love the feel of small doses of electricity flowing through my body cuz its like Vibrators (I’m talking about the kinds that massage backs, nothing perverted). I prefer night over day and try to keep the lights off, that doesn’t mean i don’t like light though cuz i still rely on it only as much as i need it. I rated ice as 2 ratings cuz there are times where my nervous system overloads with heat and so i just stick my head in the freezer cuz it’s like a cure for system overload.
I hate being dishonest and love to be a woodsman, but I also love up to date electronics. I could make a really loud battle cry, but i prefer to be silent. I can simultaneously predict the future at random but, it rarley ever happens. I’m not a nerd, but i do have confident in being smart.
Here is a list of many superpowers/abilities: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_superhuman_features_and_abilities_in_fiction
So what superpowers or abilites do you think/know I have? What super powers or abilites do you think/know you have? How could one find out if uncertain?
Question by AngelHeart: Please give me an honest opinion on this peice?
How is this writing? Please give me your honest review!!
There was a knock at the door, I took a peek through the window and saw him. With his back facing me, I heaped a sigh of happiness by glancing at his figure. I was waiting for this all morning. Applying a dab of makeup and an extra layer of lip glow, I put on a slight smile before approaching the door. It was silent, and he could hear my footsteps coming. Arriving at the door, I looked up at him, and smiled while sliding the gate open. I greeted, and brought him inside. Closing the door behind him, he took my hand and looked deeply into my eyes, giving me a slight peck on the lips. Overwhelmed, I wrapped my arms around his neck, and felt his hands around my waist. I leaned my head against his wide chest, appreciating every moment.
“where’s Eric, darling?” he asked, squeezing me slightly and then letting go.
“I called him, he’d be over in the next few hours,” I leaned back, looking up at him, my arms still massaging the back of his neck. There were moments of silence, and we’d look into each other’s eyes. He leaned in, and I tip-toed. Our lips touched, sending an electric shock throughout my body. Enjoying the next five minutes, we both pulled away. I lead him by the hand through the hallway, and into the dining room where I had everything prepared. I put the lights out in advance, so it wouldn’t spoil the surprise.
“Allison, is there something going on?” he asked, puzzled.
“You’ll see in a moment, baby,” I smiled at him. Making my way through the dark, I pulled out a chair and sat him down. I lit the candles in the middle of the table one by one, each revealing another portion of the decorated table which stood in the center of the dim lit room. Various types of his favourite dishes were laid down, and as an after treat I made some of his very favourite cookies, specially baked this morning. Everything began revealing as I lit the candles. I watched for his expression, and he was stunned, smiling slightly.
“What is all this, baby?” he asked, dazed.
“Have you forgotten? It’s our first anniversary, Ken!” I laughed. He got up from his chair, which almost stumbled over. I was taken aback by the sudden movement. Taking both my hands in his, he looked down at me. I could see his features highlighted in the dim candle light, glowing and handsome as ever. Blushing, I looked away. He took me in his arms. I gasped. A strong and firm, yet warm and soothing hug. I hadn’t been able to move my arms as he took me unaware, holding me tightly.
“Has it been a year already?” He whispered by my ear, “it feels so strange, as if it had only been weeks since that day…”
“I feel the same too,” I spoke in a low tone, “let’s continue this way…” I rested my forehead against his shoulder blade, “I want to love you forever, and always feel our wedding only a recent past…” He loosened his grip around me, and said something.
“Hm?” I looked up, but before I could fully realize, his face was no more than an inch away from mine.
“I love you, and I will forever and ever, I promise…” and with that he came closer, kissing me. I closed my eyes, feeling a sudden wave from the bottom of my body. I felt like I was going to burst, I had a sudden new ‘love’ for him. A promise of security, love and tranquility. His body was close against mine, I could feel his heartbeat. I never wanted to let go, and wanted to stay like this forever.
“Me too, baby. I love you…”
Years down the lane…How long has it been?
“Daddy, daddy! See what I’ve found!” Five year old Rachel came running up to her dad.
“What is it, Rachel?” Daddy smiled, looking down at the tiny figure. Opening her hands widely to reveal the beauty, her deep brown eyes glowed at her find. A pretty cone seashell was her find. Proud as ever, she explained every detail to her dad, pointing where she found it. Daddy looked over to where she pointed, and found that her two younger siblings were still playing in the beach sand.
“Rika! Todd! Have you found any more of these pretty shells?” She gleamed as she ran up to them, her rosy cheeks burning in the scorching sun. Ken leaned his arms in the sand, shading himself halfway under the beach umbrella. I glanced at him from the side, following my gaze from his bare legs, and then chest, until his eyes, and then I studied the detain of his golden hair brushing against his forehead in the light breeze. My love, since then. My dream, since then. Nothing has faded. Our promise held so long. I could remember every detail of that one day, our first annerversary. When we shared our promise, it was a day never to be forgotten.

Question by 203: Trapezius pain, feels like being shocked by electricity?
My trapezius(in between my neck and left shoulders) have hurt since I was still a little boy. At the most random times I feel a electric shock feeling that feels like my trapezius is being pulled, it also feels like someone is stabbing me in the trapezius or it is being stretched outwards. It gives me immense pain and my natural response is to shrug my shoulder and neck together while trying to massage it. Recently, the pain had begun to strengthen and occur more often. A few minutes ago, i felt the strain again and I ended up hoping off my chair and shrugging my neck to my shoulders while i was on the floor. The pain lasted for 1 whole minute..
Do i have some kind of disorder? or disease?
Cures/Remedies?
I’m 18 right now and this problem begun when I was still in elementary school.

If you are interested in shopping among all of the massage therapy chairs that are available on the market today, it is important to ensure that you know the secret strategies for choosing the massage chairs that will truly optimize your health. When shopping for these products, you will likely discover many products that promise to deliver instant health results. Unfortunately, most of these products only provide direct results when the pressure from the massage chair is applied to certain locations to the body. However, in most instances, once the massage chairs features are turned off, the benefits stop. If you know the secret strategies to choosing massage therapy chairs, you will be able to experience the health benefits that these products offer on a continuous basis.
Many individuals often confuse massage chairs with products that are designed to be placed in chairs that massage various regions of the upper body. The first secret strategy to choosing massage chairs that will truly optimize your health during and after each use is to understand that there is a distinct difference between massage accessories and massage therapy chairs. Massage chair accessories include vibrating pillows placed behind the neck as well as the back. In addition to this, there are massage mats that may be placed over the entire sitting area of a traditional chair. These are the products so that will only provide relief while in use. It is important to avoid selecting massage accessories like these and opt for the actual chair that provides continuous massage to every region of the body that it comes in contact with.
The second secret strategy to purchasing a massage therapy chair is to ensure that you are highly selective about the brand that you trust. You should choose your brand based on the reputation that the company has, the features that are included in the product, as well as whether or not the brand specializes in just massage chairs or other products as well. It is important to select a chair that is backed from a brand that completely focuses their attention on the creation and distribution of massage therapy chairs.
When shopping for massage chairs, it is important to ensure that you pay special attention to the features that are associated with the product. Features have a large impact on just how long your health will benefit from using the particular chair. Instead of just a basic massage feature, it is important to choose models that allow you to have a massage that is both air based and vibration based. In addition to this, it is important to choose chairs that incorporate heating during the massage. It is also important to ensure that the chair has scanning technology that may be used in order to identify all of the pressure points on the body. It is also essential to select one that is designed with the position known as “Zero Gravity”. By following the secret strategies contained in this guide, you will be able to select massage therapy chairs that will truly optimize the health on a continual basis.
Welcome to Elite Massagers, inside you will discover an amazing selection of low priced and excellent quality massage therapy chairs.
